Importance of Hook and Rig.

Hello, my name is Mike Jung. I have devoted nearly my entire life to fishing. During this long period of time, I have seen many anglers walk into a fishing tackle shop with the wrong mindset. They try to buy the best, the most expensive rods and reels. Although the rod s and reels are crucial components to an angler’s arsenal, they are not the most important. You can have the most powerful weapons in an arsenal, but they are futile unless it is loaded with ammunition. The ammunition is the hook and rig. You have to be spending a good chunk of your budget on the best hook. With the best hook, you will be insured that your prey will quickly and effectively be hooked in the right spot, which is in the mouth. Also you will be insured that your prey, once hooked, will not break free and escape. A powerful weapon with the most powerful ammunition, combined with an excellent marksman will provide one-shot, one kill.
